M-Tac Wool Jacket NYCO

The Multicam-patterned combat jacket is a model of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' standard jacket, enhanced by M-Tac specialists. The jacket is made from durable American NYCO fabric (50% cotton, 50% nylon). This is an optimal combination of durability and breathability. This is the quality of fabric used to manufacture uniforms for the U.S. Army. The jacket features a loose fit and high-quality fittings.

It closes with a central zipper covered by a Velcro strap. There are two hidden Velcro pockets on the chest with vertical openings for easy access to the contents. The sleeves also have spacious pockets with flaps for additional storage. The Velcro panels on the chest and sleeves are designed to attach name tags and patches. The cuffs can be adjusted with Velcro.

The NYCO Extreme Field Tunic will become a practical and functional element of the uniform for modern military personnel.

Fittings: YKK

*It is recommended to wash in gentle mode at a temperature of no more than 30°C. YKK is the world leader in zipper production and manufactures 90% of all zippers at 71 factories worldwide. This is a group of Japanese companies whose trademark was registered nearly 70 years ago. YKK stands for "Yoshida’s Factory" – the name of the company's founder, who began producing zippers for clothing in the 1930s. Success was achieved through collaboration with leading clothing brands and the application of particularly stringent quality standards. For a long time, the machine for producing high-quality zippers was kept secret, allowing them to quickly outpace competitors.

The camouflage "MULTICAM" was developed by the American company Crye Precision in collaboration with the U.S. Army Soldier Systems Center, known as U.S. Army Natick Labs. The development of the MULTICAM pattern took over eight years of expeditions, scientific research, data analysis, and practical field tests. It was designed as a universal camouflage solution for the U.S. Army. The need for a new camouflage became evident after Operation Desert Storm in Iraq, where the existing patterns Woodland and Tri-Color Desert did not provide adequate concealment. Even with the introduction of universal digital camouflage during operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, the situation did not significantly improve. It became clear that there was a need for a single universal pattern that allowed soldiers to blend into any terrain at any distance.

The MULTICAM pattern works by exploiting the limitations of human vision and the structure of the eye. At long distances, the camouflage consists of large, blurred patches, while small, rounded elements are used up close, especially against backgrounds of vegetation. The developers found that dominant backgrounds around the world share similar shades of green and brown. An important discovery was that black, often used in camouflage patterns, actually does not exist in nature. By integrating their findings and conducting computer simulations of over a thousand images, they succeeded in creating the MULTICAM pattern.

Near Infrared (NIR) technology is used by the U.S. Department of Defense to minimize detection by NIR electro-optical sensors. NIR uniforms are made from a special fabric that helps soldiers maintain a temperature similar to the surroundings, making them harder to detect. Additionally, NIR technology reduces light reflection, making the uniforms less visible in low light conditions.
